Meatless Monday: MLT’s

Fresh garden tomatoes from my parent’s garden on toast with romaine lettuce and olive oil light mayo! Delicious! So simple, yet packed full of flavor. I love garden tomato season as the “perfect” ones you buy in the store don’t has nearly has much taste. My daughter, who is also a vegetarian, called these MLT’s instead of BLT’s. (Ya know, mayo, lettuce, and tomato.) LT’s just didn’t sound right.

For the rest of the gang, they had the traditional “BLT.”

Meatless Mondays is a weekly feature which will showcase some of my hits and probably misses with living a meatless life. Many of you know I stopped eating meat about a year ago for personal reasons. While, I haven’t had any desire to go back to eating meat, it has been a struggle to find healthy foods to eat.

Everywhere you go, meat is the main dish. Since I was new to this lifestyle, it led me to eating unhealthy options. I’m on a path now to cook healthier options at home without meat. While going meatless is a personal choice for me, you can still save money by having one meatless meal a week.

Will you join me on this journey by preparing one meatless dish every week?
